Street Seen: 4th of July BaDa Bang!

HIGHLANDS — It wouldn’t be summer without the annual Highland 4th of July Picnic and Parade. This year the event celebrated Miss America’s 241st birthday and its 10th anniversary as the quintessential neighborhood gathering. Hosted by merchants from LoHi and HUNI (Highland United Neighbors Incorporated), this family-friendly, old-fashioned parade was a heart-warming community event. Bike […]

Street Seen: Tinsel Town

NORTH DENVER — Thanksgiving weekend kicked off the official holiday season. It started with a Turkey Trot around Sloan’s Lake to make room for the Big Bird later that day. But, the true spirit of the entire community came together when the Big Guy came riding into town on Small Business Saturday.

Small businesses throughout the Highlands issued passports to shoppers to encourage shopping local & small, thinking outside of the big box for unique and clever gift ideas. 32nd Ave. merchants featured specials throughout the weekend. Cobblers Corner created a Scavenger Hunt for patrons to discover new gems in Sunnyside. The Tennyson Berkeley Business Association launched their annual Passport Crawl with over 25 participating businesses through December 3. To get shopping mojo going, the Midwestern Saloon on Tennyson hosted Breakfast with Santa and fed the throngs with Mr. Claus pancake lookalikes.

Pine scented the air with fresh cut trees from the Elitch Carousel and Little Man’s Tree Lot on the Plaza, as people picked and hoisted their fresh green loot atop cars. Little Man is even offering a home delivery this season to take the sweat out of sweet memories.

Festivities wafted through the streets as neighborhoods counted down for the big tree lighting ceremonies. Tennyson’s tree was lit up with 200 guests at Cesar Chavez Park enjoying photos with Santa, face painters and kids crafts.

In LoHi the once “little & local” Holiday Lights event has turned into a huge community gathering with over 2,000 attendees. With a neighborhood-wide spirit of giving it was supported by the LoHi Merchants, HUNI, LoHi Marketplace, 5280 Church and restaurants throughout the hood. Clydesdale hay rides, tiny ponies, Christmas carols, candles and dancing Horas in the street were led by Anya Thompson of the Music Train. And, of course, pictures with Santa…that made the usual lines at Little Man feel short.

The Highland United Methodist Church tree lighting was postponed on Sunday as blustery winds blew down the huge tree, followed promptly by the TBBA’s Tennyson Street tree. Which begs the question, “If a tree falls in the Highlands can anyone hear it?” Apparently the answer is “Yes.” Niya Diehl and Grant Giengrich, owners of Local 46 and el Camino got the SOS call and helped with Brad Laurvick’s team and neighbors to try and resurrect the tree. It underscored the true meaning of Christmas. Give the gift of your presence. The presents will follow.

Merchants and shoppers at Tennyson's bookstore Second Star to the Right enjoyed the good cheer of shopping small, the antidote to Black Friday. Cobbler's Corner Shop Small hosted a scavenger hunt highlighting some of the new businesses in the Sunnyside neighborhood Tree Down on Tennsyon Tree Down at Highland Square.

Street Seen: Scary Good

NORTH DENVER — There was witches magic in the air during the month of October. Witchy-witchcraft spells kept the brewing cauldron of normally snowy weather away,
replacing it with a balmy Indian summer like none on record. It was lovely, if not the scariest thing about this Halloween season.

But, for merchants, neighborhood friends and families it made the escapade into terror a heart-warming (and global warming) affair.

The pumpkin artistry is nothing short of spook-tacular. Two of the winning costumes, Pippy Longstocking and Beetlejuice echoed the spook with their hair-raising dos. They also hosted a series of Gallagher Ghost stories and Freaky Fright Night Flicks that had guests scintillated as Dennis Gallagher regaled the crowds with ghostly happenings in North Denver history, and invited others to share their stories.</p> <p class="p1"><span style="color: #ff6600"><em><strong>Highland Haunt’s Spook-tacular Costume Party</strong></em></span></p>

It appears that attendees spent the entire year concocting the elaborate costumes and makeup that put this event sponsored by Amy Berglund at the top of its class. Speaking of class, the Bryant-Webster Mariachi players put on a top-class performance that had the crowds chanting, ‘”Viva Mexico.” It was a particularly fitting song for the many beautiful Day of the Dead faces that thrilled the crowd.</p> <p class="p1"><span style="color: #ff6600"><em><strong>North High School Trick or Treat Street Conjures Community</strong></em></span></p> <p class="p1"><img class="aligncenter wp-image-1271 size-full" src="http://northdenvertribune.net/wp-content/uploads/2016/11/North-High-3.jpg" alt="north-high-3" /></p> <p class="p1">Speaking of community, North High School hosted a Trick or Treat Street that had seriously insane crowds, often times looking like they were let out of the asylum. The gym was packed to the rafters with Katy Lushman’s choir of batty singers, and the halls were haunted with ghouls and goblins making their way through candy mountain to the haunted house.</p> <p class="p1"><span style="color: #ff6600"><em><strong>A Ghoulishly Good Finish</strong></em></span></p>                                                            #td_uid_5_581feb331b44f  .td-doubleSlider-2 .td-item1 {                         background: url(https://i1.wp.com/www.northdenvertribune.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/11/Disco-1.jpg?resize=80%2C60&amp;ssl=1) 0 0 no-repeat;                     }                     #td_uid_5_581feb331b44f  .td-doubleSlider-2 .td-item2 {                         background: url(https://i2.wp.com/www.northdenvertribune.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/11/Disco-2.jpg?resize=80%2C60&amp;ssl=1) 0 0 no-repeat;                     }                                   <div id="td_uid_5_581feb331b44f" class="td-slide-on-2-columns">                     <div class="post_td_gallery">                         <div class="td-gallery-slide-top">                            <div class="td-gallery-title"></div>                              <div class="td-gallery-controls-wrapper">                                 <div class="td-gallery-slide-count"><span class="td-gallery-slide-item-focus">1</span> of 2</div>                                 <div class="td-gallery-slide-prev-next-but">                                     <i class="td-icon-left doubleSliderPrevButton"></i>                                     <i class="td-icon-right doubleSliderNextButton"></i>                                 </div>                             </div>                         </div>                          <div class="td-doubleSlider-1 ">                             <div class="td-slider">                                                      <div class="td-slide-item td-item1">                         <figure class="td-slide-galery-figure td-slide-popup-gallery">                                                              <img src="http://northdenvertribune.net/wp-content/uploads/2016/11/Disco-1.jpg" alt="">                                                                                   </figure>                     </div>                     <div class="td-slide-item td-item2">                         <figure class="td-slide-galery-figure td-slide-popup-gallery">                                                              <img src="http://northdenvertribune.net/wp-content/uploads/2016/11/Disco-2.jpg" alt="">                                                                                   </figure>                     </div>                             </div>                         </div>                          <div class="td-doubleSlider-2">                             <div class="td-slider">                                                      <div class="td-button td-item1">                         <div class="td-border"></div>                     </div>                     <div class="td-button td-item2">                         <div class="td-border"></div>                     </div>                             </div>                         </div>                      </div>                  </div>                  <p class="p1">To end the Halloweek-end, Little Man’s “I-Scream”-ery held a Silent Disco Costume Ball and Silent Screamer movies, the Exorcist and Ghostbusters. It was otherworldly seeing the entire plaza glowing in red, green and blue headphone halos provided by Sound Down. Fat Jack’s brought free food for the costume clad-headset crowd to fundraise for Cooper Deming, and Local 46 bussed the crowd in the Bulldog (driven by owner Grant Gienrich) to the wildly successful after-party at the bar.</p> <p>The post Street Seen: Scary Good appeared first on North Denver Tribune.</p>
